The man hit the boy hard that blood came out of the corner of his mouth, and he was completely stunned. 

Facing his father’s angry eyes, he covered his face and dared not to argue anymore. 

The man took a series of deep breaths to calm down and bowed deeply to the crowd. “I’m sorry, everyone. I didn’t teach my son well, and I caused you trouble. I apologize to you all.” 

The crowd’s anger could not be calmed down, but they also knew that the mistake was made by the second-generation, and the settlement camp did save a lot of people, and they were also beneficiaries. 

The leader, who was always in charge of the rescue, even came to comfort them in the rain. 

The man was a good person, but his son had been spoiled. 

After some thought, the crowd, full of grievances, chose not to make things difficult any further. 

Jiang Ning had no intention of getting entangled with him. Moreover, since the settlement camp was made up of his people, making a serious move would be a disadvantage on her side. 

She looked at Doudou. “Have you been bullied?” 

Doudou shook her head. “No.” 

Jiang Ning gave up. “Since my sister-in-law is fine, let’s forget about it today. But if there’s a next time, I will not show mercy.” 

The man thanked him and raised his hand to slap his son twice. “You idiot, why don’t you apologize!” 

Under his father’s authority, the boy could only grit his teeth and say, “Sorry.” 

Jiang Ning said coldly, “I can’t hear you; speak louder.” 

“I said, I’m sorry!” 

He said sorry, but his eyes were full of hatred. 

Jiang Ning pretended not to see it and let the man take his son away. 

Seeing her come back, Zheng Weili and others breathed a sigh of relief and then asked with concern, “Have you found Brother Shen?” 

Jiang Ning looked at them and shook her head with a complicated expression. “No.” 

“Anning, don’t worry,” Lu Yu said reassuringly. “Brother Shen is very strong; he’s probably just delayed because of injuries, like us.” 

The four drove out of Fengcheng, but they didn’t expect the car to break down just after leaving the city. 

It took a long time to repair it, and then they continued on the road. 

When misfortune strikes, it seems like everything goes wrong. They were blocked by refugees who came from an entire village. They surrounded the car, smashed the windows with stones, and even tried to overturn the vehicle to force them out. 

Ding Qi was furious and stepped on the accelerator to the bottom to hit them, but the engine broke down again and could not start. 

The car window glass was smashed, and Zhang Chao shot and killed a few people, but there were too many of them. 

In the end, they were forced to get out, took out their weapons, and fought with them… 

Unexpectedly, a sandstorm suddenly hit, Zhang Chao and Lu Yu, who were closer to the car, hurriedly got into the car to avoid the storm. 

The car was overturned, and the two hugged the supplies tightly to escape but were still ruthlessly blown away. 

Zhang Chao sprained his foot and suffered multiple injuries. 

Lu Yu was not much better and was hit by flying stones and suffered a concussion. 

The two were separated, but fortunately, the supplies were not lost, and they survived. 

Later, as the wind and sand gradually subsided, they endured the pain and searched for each other. 

They were not separated by very far and were the first to meet each other. However, a rainstorm came, and there were mudslides everywhere. They were first trapped by the river and then went in the wrong direction and went further and further away… 

It’s all sad to talk about. 

But no matter what, although it took a lot of time, they were reunited in the end. 

Now, only Huo Yishen and Coke are missing. 

The settlement camp was disbanded, but they can continue to look, and they will definitely find Brother Shen and Coke. 

Zhang Chao didn’t think about his sprained foot. “Yes, there is strength in numbers. If we look separately, we will find them.” 

Looking at them, who were also injured, Jiang Ning would be lying if she said she wasn’t moved, but she couldn’t tell the truth. 

Huo Yishen’s injuries were serious, and he needed the best medical treatment and care. If he went with Zhang Chao, Lu Yu, and the others, the bumpy journey would only make his injuries worse at any time. 

“Thank you.” Jiang Ning hugged the four people. “You are injured and sick. It’s better if you take care of yourselves first. Don’t worry about us.” 

Lu Yu was stunned, “Anning, do you think we’re a burden?” 

“Nonsense.” Jiang Ning rolled her eyes at him. “Look at yourselves; it takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone. If we really let you go out to look for him with illness and injuries, you’d only make your injuries worse.” 

Zheng Weili insisted, “Friends shouldn’t be so calculating. Besides, you and Brother Shen have helped us so much. Now that he’s missing, how can we be at ease?” 

Jiang Ning understood their kindness. “I have been looking outside for a few days, and I did get some news. A group of survivors said that they saw someone who looked very much like Huo Yishen and seemed to be going west.” 

“I don’t know where he is. I don’t know whether what they said is true or not, and I don’t know why Huo Yishen wants to go west, but I want to take Doudou there to try my luck.” 

“I happened to pick up a bicycle on the road, so I’ll take Doudou and follow the trail, see if we can find him and Coke. It shouldn’t take too long.” 

“Your task is to take care of yourself. Do you want to go to Huicheng with the majority, or find a place to recover from your injuries before making plans?” 

Although the four had lost their car, Zhang Chao and Lu Yu managed to salvage some supplies, and Zheng Weili and Ding Qi also found some additional supplies in the cave, so their lives were better than those of ordinary survivors. 

Lu Yu’s concussion was not healed, and he would feel dizzy and nauseous if he stood for a long time. 

After more than ten days, everyone was weak and really couldn’t stand the tossing. 

But thinking about Anning running around the world to find Brother Shen while they couldn’t help at a crucial moment was deeply upsetting. 

Jiang Ning understood their intentions. “You saved Doudou and protected her just now. This is the biggest help.” 

“Take good care of yourself in the future; we may have a chance to meet again.” 

In the end of the world, the chance to reunite after separation was a luxury. 

Jiang Ning looked at her old friends with teary eyes, “Be sure to stay safe.” 

The four of them felt heavy in their hearts and hugged and said their goodbyes. “Anning, no matter whether we can meet again in the future, you must live well.” 

Jiang Ning nodded and reminded, “Pay attention to the boy just now. He doesn’t look like a good person. I’m afraid he will cause trouble for you.” 

“Such scum, just let him come. If he hadn’t been born into a good family, he would have died eight hundred times.” 

Jiang Ning rode a bicycle and left with Doudou. 

Zhang Chao and the others stood on the hillside, looking at her disappearing shadow, with extremely complicated feelings. 

Ding Qi stood beside him. “Don’t worry. Anning is a capable person; she will live better than us no matter where she goes.” 

Zheng Weili looked at the three injured people. “No matter what the future holds, we must live well.” 

Lu Yu said, “Should we find a place to recuperate now, or go directly to Huicheng?” 

“Let’s find a place to recuperate,” Zhang Chao said. “When we feel better, shall we go to Huicheng and look for Brother Shen?” 

The other three had no objections, and they carried their things and supported each other as they left. 

Jiang Ning was eager to return and pedaled her bicycle so fast that she almost threw Doudou off the back seat. 

Doudou endured the discomfort. “Sister-in-law, where are we going now?”
